LGBT therapists in West Hartford, CT

**Only taking individual clients now. No couples till the fall.

Hi, I am a Licensed, Board-Certified Therapist providing psychotherapy services to clients in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, and Virginia. I work with adolescents, adults, and couples experiencing anxiety, addiction, anger, relationship challenges, and a wide range of other mental health concerns.

As a member of and advocate for the BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ communities, I strive to provide affirming, culturally responsive, and inclusive care. I am also a certified Gottman Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work (7P's) Couples Workshop Leader, helping couples strengthen communication, deepen connection, and build healthier relationships.

In addition to providing therapy, I offer professional clinical supervision for Licensed Mental Health Counselors (LMHCs) and Licensed Mental Health Counselor Limited Permit (LMHC-LP) professionals, supporting their growth and development in clinical practice.

Believing you are the expert in your life my hope is to act as a beacon of light on a path that sometimes goes dark.

Hi, y'all,

I bring 17 years of experience and believe firmly that nothing shifts in the therapeutic space unless clients feel seen and connected to their clinician.

I am warm and direct, personable and challenging. I move through my life with curiosity and wonder at the natural world and the power of relationships.

I love swimming in fresh water, non-fiction books, spending time with my teenagers and hanging out in my gardens. I specialize in sexual and gender identity and look forward to building relationships with people that are motivated to move forward, begin healing and expanding their world.

I help women move through fear, self-doubt, and old patterns so they can step into clarity, confidence, and fulfillment — both personally and professionally. Many of my clients are navigating transitions like ending relationships, redefining careers, or growing businesses while trying to protect their mental health. Together, we focus on strengthening self-trust, setting boundaries, and creating a mindset that supports lasting change. As a therapist and mindset coach, I combine evidence-based tools with forward-focused coaching to help you move from awareness to action — and build the confidence to trust yourself again.

I am a licensed mental health counselor who specializes in working with women "across the spectrum of motherhood." I work with women experiencing infertility, pregnancy, postpartum depression, anxiety, OCD, heavy mental loads, mom guilt, and empty nests. I have advanced training in perinatal mood and anxiety disorders and use evidence based approaches in my work.

Simple Intentions Counseling LLC looks for client's that are insightful, curious, and ready to explore the deeper layers of their emotional life. They may be struggling with anxiety, self-doubt, relationship patterns, or a persistent feeling of being “stuck.” They want clarity, self-acceptance, and tools to manage their emotions — but more than that, they want to understand why they feel the way they do. They’re not afraid to be challenged and are open to connecting their current struggles with earlier life experiences. They want lasting change, not quick fixes — and they’re ready to do the work.

As a board certified psychotherapist, I believe prioritizing mental health is key to happiness and stability in life. I've been practicing for 15 years, and my main focus is to help alleviate your pain, whether it be from depression, anxiety, trauma, or dissociation. I've excelled myself in and places great value on serving clients from diverse racial, gender, and sexual backgrounds. I am Deaf and fluent in American Sign Language.

My professional journey has spanned a range of settings, including private practice, a program serving adults with severe mental illness, residential treatment center for adolescents, mobile mental health services, and mental health urgent care.
